Success begets loneliness if you're not careful, this is a cautionary tale of what success can really make you feel like if you get there by turning away relationships with your friends and family...

About a girl who's suffering through some pretty bad depression, and there's a guy around her, trying to help, trying to let her know that he sees through all of that bad, stressful stuff and actually sees her as a beautiful, loving person, and he just wants her to take a chance and try to be happy, rather than staying lost in her own pain and emotions. I like how it turned out. Unique rhythm to it that may be hard to glean via reading text. Very alliterative, I think.

This depicts someone who has lost hope in the face of depression, with no-one to care for them or realise what they're going through it's the story of how someone falls deeper and deeper into the pit of despair...

When pushed to the edge of our psychological boundary so many people have taken their own lives, this is a story about how an overbearing and manipulative relationship can end in tragedy...

While I typically write country, this can go that way, or it sounds excellent more in the Bruno Mars sort of vein. It's about a guy who's in love with this friend's girl, so he fantasizes about her leaving him. It flows incredibly well rhythmically; I can't stress that enough. Just sing it sorta fast in a choppy, hard-emphasis-on-syllables fashion and it will come together so you get the gist of where I'm heading with it. I really enjoy it. It's something different for me.
